Life, Karnjana Karnjanatawe, Published on 17/12/2015

Bigger than Thailand, with a similar size population, Myanmar has through years of international financial sanctions fallen behind the rest of the region in terms of influence and standing, with a military government that didn't tolerate threats to its authority. Nevertheless it has some of the region's most variegated scenery _ from mountain trekking to pristine beaches _ stunning temples and sites, delicious food, and the great sincerity and beauty of its people.

Down by the sea
Life, Karnjana Karnjanatawe, Published on 14/06/2012
» The small province of Samut Sakhon is better known for its seafood market than as a weekend destination. Most of the time when we drive South, we just quickly try and pass it because Highway 35 is not an enjoyable driving experience, as it is always under construction.The coastal province along the Gulf of Thailand was in the spotlight recently when Aung San Suu Kyi, Myanmar's opposition leader, visited migrant workers there.
